Favor Mob Law.

Our young friend johnson, of the
Herald, seems quite anxious to have
us express ourself regarding the maui
ing of Georgia Democrat by three
''niggers." We thought we had done
so, but must have forgotten it. Our
aim is, and always has been, to be per-
fectly fair We believe in the spirit
Of the Civil Rights Bill and the Dec
laration of independence. We believe
in a Georgia Democrat having as
much privilege as niger. But as
to the case in point. Three niggers
came along and met Democrat.
They asked him if he was dry" He
replied yes, and they knocked him
down. We are in favor Of a mob, to
hang those niggers. In the first place,
a man oughtn't to be beaten for tell
ing the truth; in the next place, any
niger who hasn't more sense than to
ask Georgia Democrat if he is dry,
ought to be killed and put out Of his
misery. We trust our position is un-
derstood upon this important ques-
ton

We have no sympathy with Mr.. E.
L. Harper's great mistake of judg-
ment, to call it by no harsher name,
but when man acts toward prison
er in the manner in which the Super
intendent of the clothing department.
Of the Penitentiary is said to have act
ed towards Harper, we think the
whole State Of Ohio ought to rise up
as one man, and all kick him at one
and the same time 1t is not manly
to gloat over another mans misfor-
tunes, nor use the privilege Of pris-
on official to attempt to degrade a
prisoner. A terrier may snap at a
wounded lion, but he is terrier still.
Harper should be punished for his
transgressious. and we believe is SUBJ
mitting with good grace to his pun
ishment, but those who would treat
man with studied indignity under
such circumstances, evidently feel
their own inferiority. A man is man,
even in adversity. A boor is a boor,
even in prosperity.

OF chronic catarrh patient is often
SO offensive that he becomes an object
of disgust After a time liberation
sets in, the spongy bones are attacked,
and frequently entirely destroyed. A
constant source Of discomfort is the
dripping of the purulent secretions
into the throat sometimes producing

turn has been the exciting cause Of

1t seems to be new feature of free
trade argument that it's promoters are
asserting by speech and in print that
under our protective policy our farm
ers are growing poor. Several En-
glish writers of note have published
statements to this effect, which have
been circulated freely in this country.
1t might seem-if these writers had
not been known as free trade propa-
gandists, and their works had not
been so industriously circulated here
that their aim was only to keep up
the courage of the English farmers
by showing that however deplorable
their condition under free trade, their
American competitors we're no better
off under protection. But the wide
